As soon as I noticed the dates I bought my tickets before buying my Toronto (Massey Hall) tickets..

I couldn't ask for a better B-day weekend.... Time well spent in the nations capitol with the nations band turning 27 but in no way wanting to join the club!!

Requests from the peanut gallery: (doesn't matter which night, since I'll be at all three...which is somewhat sad in and of itself, but there you go)

(Somewhat realistic)Songs I want to hear this weekend:

1) Inevitability of death
2) Looking for a place to happen (didn't ever figure this would be on the list, but they've played it in the last two multi-night runs)
3) Cordelia (SOMEWHAT realistic, he said)
4) Something on
5) Thompson girl
6) Thugs
7) So hard done by
8) The dark canuck
9) Emperor penguin
10) Country day

Oh, and opiated. A guy can dream...

If we're dreaming how about Last American Exit?

There's at least a small chance of Opiated!!
It has been played once before on this tour 05/19/09 @ Massey Hall.

If I were a betting man & I am, there's no second guessing in my mind 8 or more of the songs on the list will be played over the weekend!!

have a great show tonight boys!!! and let's have a rockin' crowd tonight. i'll be the guy (some of you i'm sure have met me) with the Boston Bruins "Downie" jersey tonight jumping up and down in the 4th row floor. Though I don't jump up as often due to a body that is plauging me with pain. i must wipe that away tonight with my good friend "REV"

just a little tidbit for you all, today is the 26th and this is my 26th show. Followed of course by the 27th and 28th as well, pretty weird if you ask me. it's going to be an eerry three days, I can feel it in my blood.

see y'all there tonight!!

kball!!!!!!

Somewhat realistic possibilities, in no particular order, save the first three:

a. Cordelia (never heard)
b. So Hard Done By (never heard)
c. Tiger the Lion (it's been forever)
d. Opiated (never heard)
e. Emperor Penguin (it's been years)
f. We'll Go Too (it's been a while)
g. 700FT ( as per my license plate)
h. Drop Off
i. Flamenco (again, it's been a while)
j. Fire in the Hole (killer tune to end a show on)!!!!!!!

it seemed so irrational to spend $1200 in tickets(according to the roomate)....sooooo worth it now! Enjoy all.
